Win would read an ISO 9660 CD-ROM, but not a Mac HFS file system on an ISO 9660 CD-ROM. So, if your FreeBSD box is configured with all the Mac hfs utilities, it may be possible to read the disk. Anyhow, hfs support in FBSD is weak, so maybe it does not work. Just install everything with hfs in it's name and try. posting results would be nice, too ;-) -Christoph Sold To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
